#42489 [NEW]: Quirk in strtotime using 'next' relative keyword

From: chet at somedec dot com Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.2.4RC3 PHP Bug Type: Date/time related Bug description: Quirk in strtotime using 'next' relative keyword Description: ------------ Adding time (even zero) to a relative date using the "next" keyword fails. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $day = date("l"); // Get what /today/ is. $plain = strtotime("Next $day"); $zweek = strtotime("Next $day + 0 weeks"); $incweek = strtotime("Next $day + 1 week"); $zmin = strtotime("Next $day + 0 weeks"); $incmin = strtotime("Next $day + 1 minute"); echo "Today is $day\n"; echo "Next $day is " . date(DATE_ATOM, $plain) . "\n"; echo ($zweek === $plain ? "PASS\t" : "FAIL\t") . "Next $day + 0 weeks is " . date(DATE_ATOM, $zweek) . "\n"; echo ($incweek !== $plain ? "PASS\t" : "FAIL\t") . "Next $day + 1 week is " . date(DATE_ATOM, $incweek) . "\n"; echo ($zmin === $plain ? "PASS\t" : "FAIL\t") . "Next $day + 0 minutes is " . date(DATE_ATOM, $zmin) . "\n"; echo ($incmin == ($plain + 60) ? "PASS\t" : "FAIL\t") . "Next $day + 1 minute is " . date(DATE_ATOM, $incmin) . "\n"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- The four tests should pass; none do. Actual result: -------------- Using the current day (according to your computer clock) in conjunction with the next keyword (i.e. "Next Thursday" when run on Thursday) correctly returns one week from the current date. However, adding or subtracting any amount of time results in an erroneous result of the /current date/ plus or minus the offset. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42489&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=42489&r=mysqlcfg
